  1. Hose is cheap, would be worth a try. Used engine but in HI I'm sure there is limited supply.
  2. Toothed TB idler gear. I've 4 different folks have these fail in the last 6 months. New TB and full TB job had them all back up and going in a day.
  3. Subaru Seals are a good investment and plan on another t belt change 60K from now to be on the safe side.
  4. What's the CEL code? Make sure the light works and read the computer. Start with the basics: Plugs - NGK copper core Plug Wires - Subaru or NGK Get a Mechanic who knows Subarus!
  5. no you need every thing off the standard trans car to do the swap, but you can Legacy777 has great thread.
  6. Check the CCA of the battery could also be a leaking injector is allowing fuel pressure to bleed off
  7. Put the other bolts back in to share the load and then use a 6 point box end wrench.
  8. no electrical input. if you have the 2 section rear drive shaft, drop out the last section. make sure the front and rear diffs are the same.
  9. put a dollar bill very close to the exhaust. if it gets pulled back into the pipe while running you have a bennt valve or hg leak
  10. MAF if it idles fine but has on power when you step on the gas
  11. Yep, those toothed idlers are the ones that fail most of the time. 96 2.5 99 2.2 93 2.2 95 2.2 These are the motors just this year that I have seen with that failure and I just do this for fun. All ran with just new timing parts, no bent valves on the 96 and 99!
  12. Glad your OK. Could always by it back from the insurance and keep the engine and other good parts for you next one.
  13. I've done them on 93-96 Legacy's and everything bolts right in so you should be fine.
